2. Install the HP UPD on the virtual print server.
Installing the HP UPD on the virtual server is similar to installing the HP UPD on any print server. Install
the traditional mode of the driver, using the Add Printer Wizard of the virtual server.
If you use HP UPD 5.3 or later, you can use the /s option to install on the virtual node. (HP recommends
running this command from the active node.) Use the following steps:
a. Log into the active node of the cluster. You can log in while at the machine or remotely.
b. Run INSTALL.EXE using the /s option. The following is the syntax:
install /s"\\VirtualServerName"
NOTE: There are no spaces between “\\” and “VirtualServerName”.
If you use HP UPD 5.2 or earlier, use the following steps:
a. Log into the active node of the cluster. You can log in while at the machine or remotely.
b. Open the virtual print server by clicking Start, then Run, and then typing the
\\virtualservername
c. Open the Printers folder.
d. Run the Add Printer Wizard and install the driver in traditional mode.
NOTE: If prompted to use Existing Driver, select Replace Driver. When Keep existing driver is
selected on a Windows 2003 cluster, empty folders will be created locally on the active node
(when using the Add Printer wizard from the active node) and only 499 can be added.
